Family is a strange thing isn't it? Most of us are never entirely comfortable with our own families. They're like a random selection of people you're selected to go through life through. Every wedding, birth, death, holiday, whatever, this random collection of people gather round to make awkward small talk. it's kind of funny.
I don't mean your immediate family-that's another story (for better or for worse). I mean all those random loud uncles or scary looking aunts how fight over holding whatever baby is in the house and get drunk and argue and all that stuff. And all the kids you don't know running around with chocolate on their faces. I come from a big Irish family and I'll be damned if I can name half of them. And I have no idea who goes with who.
Mostly I just sit there until the cake is served. And then I get my coat off the bed and go.
